What Happens When AI Is Actually Built for the Classroom?
This past year was one of the toughest yet for many teachers, but it was also the year Instructron made its classroom debut. Brittany C., one of our earliest pilot users, is a 5th grade teacher juggling a room full of students at varying levels of reading proficiency.

From Bubble to Breakthrough: How My Class Grew on the ELA CAASPP with Instructron

“It Saves Them from Just Guessing”: How One Michigan Teacher Is Using Instructron to Boost Student Confidence
In the ever-growing sea of edtech tools, it’s rare to find one that feels like it was actually built with real classrooms in mind. But when Beth Y., a 5th grade teacher in Wyandotte, Michigan, started using Instructron with a small group of her students, something clicked right away, for both her and the kids. Beth didn’t need a training session or hours of PD to get started. Instructron’s onboarding takes minutes, and students can jump in immediately. That’s intentional. We believe tools shoul
